Drainage pipe that is insulated and ready to take on any freezing weather

This area is heavily insulated with the spray foam and CleanSpace vapor barrier

This is another area where they insulated with the spray foam and CleanSpace vapor barrier so now they can use this area for storage or anything else they wanted

Another example of a section of the finished spray foam and CleanSpace vapor barrier. The beams and rim joists are heavily insulated to provide comfort above the house

This is a great example of the spray foam and whats underneath the CleanSpace vapor barrier. You can see that the beams are heavily spray foamed to seal all the crevasses so hot and cold air don't penetrate the bathroom or house above.

Challenge

A customer in Mine Hill NJ found Pipe Works Services online and was looking to insulate their crawlspace that ran underneath their bathroom. They had an issue with frozen pipes. They received other estimates but from the start, felt comfortable with Pipe Works Services and choose us to create a solution.

Solution

Pipe Works Services technicians Gio and Malik removed and disposed of existing fiberglass and rigid board insulation in crawl space by ripping down the insulation from the beams. They then installed the crawl space insulation with 2" SilverGlo rigid board and or 2" closed cell spray foam on side walls Terrablock 1" foam matting on floor. Gio and Malik had to crawl in an extremely tight space to get the boards and clean space vapor barrier over the dirt floor area. Then they installed approximately 2" closed cell spray foam over rim joist. They had to make sure all the drainage piping for the bathroom was properly insulated with the spray foam so pipes wouldn't freeze. Gio and Malik installed weather stripping and rigid board on the existing crawl space access door since it was still in good shape.
